Illustrated my favourite Neil Gaiman quote for writers. :-) (and thanks to Neil for his permission)

It’s as true now as when I first said it…

This is some of the best advice about writing. It won’t get done by just thinking about it, it won’t finish itself in the night, and nobody is as much of an inspiration as your own mind. The way to write great things, to write anything at all, is just to write.

Only if everybody would understand and do it! Zoom

Before the Mast Welcome to our play-by-post historical RPG!

It's 1719 in the West Indies. The Caribbean Sea is boiling in the war and there is no quiet place ashore or at sea. Besides the political turmoil which leads the colonies at each other’s throats, pirates and privateers are on the prowl. Come spend some time with us BEFORE THE MAST, on any ship you like! Sharpen your blades, load your guns, drain that last sip of rhum and join our swashbuckling adventures!
